The approximate speed of the sound wave traveling through the solid material is 1012m/s.

<h3>Wavelength, Frequency and Speed</h3>

Wavelength is simply the distance over which the shapes of waves are repeated. It is the spatial period of a periodic wave.

From the wavelength, frequency and speed relation,

λ = v ÷ f

Where λ is wavelength, v is velocity/speed and f is frequency.

Given the data in the question;

  • Frequency of sound wave f = 440Hz = 440s⁻¹
  • Wavelength of the wave λ = 2.3m
  • Speed of the wave v = ?

To determine the approximate speed of the wave, we substitute our given values into the expression above.

λ = v ÷ f

2.3m = v ÷ 440s⁻¹

v = 2.3m × 440s⁻¹

v = 1012ms⁻¹

v = 1012m/s

Therefore, the approximate speed of the sound wave traveling through the solid material is 1012m/s.

The number of outer shell electrons determines the chemical properties of an element?
Ivan
Yes, it is true to a certain that the number of outer shell electrons determines the chemical properties of an element, only because this determines how the element interacts with other elements.

Type the correct answer in the box. Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Calculate the man’s mass. (Use PE = m × g × h
Blababa [14]

Answer:

56 kg

Explanation:

The change in potential energy of the man is given by:

\Delta U = mg \Delta h

where

m is the man's mass

g is the gravitational acceleration

\Delta h is the change in height of the man

In this problem, we have:

\Delta U=4620 J is the gain in potential energy

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration

\Delta h=8.4 m is the change in height

Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the mass:

m=\frac{\Delta U}{g\Delta h}=\frac{4620 J}{(9.8 m/s^2)(8.4 m)}=56 kg

How long does water evaporation take? What factors influence it?
svetoff [14.1K]
There is no certain time on how long it takes. Because the factors will always be different and the factors heavily affect the evaporation time. Some factors include: humidity, heat, how the sun is visible (whether clouds are covering it or not)

Letter C on the map labels which feature of the Middle East?
likoan [24]

Honest, the map is so tiny, and so fuzzy when I blow it up, I really can't see anything on it clearly.  But I think maybe I do see a letter ' C ' in the eastern Mediterranean, with a curved line over to the southern Gaza strip, where it meets Sinai.  So I'll say it's the Gaza Strip.

One student did an experiment on the rock cycle.
Nonamiya [84]
First, when the student added the layers of wax over each other, this became a representation of sedimentary rocks.

Then the student folded his/her palm and squeezed the layers of wax. This means that the student applied heat and pressure on the wax (sedimentary rocks)

Referring to the diagram below which represents the rock cycle, we will find that applying heat and pressure on sedimentary rocks would convert these rocks into metamorphic rocks.

Based on the above, the best choice would be:
<span>d. Heat and pressure can change sedimentary rocks into metamorphic rocks.</span>
